I'm 17, turning 18 in September. I live in Southern California. My parents are extremely devout Catholics but I was never religious to begin with, even if I went to Catholic school for 9 years before high school. After I was confirmed in my church, my doubts from when I was 9 resurfaced, and I started falling out of it from there. Here's how it went for me:

non-religious Catholic --> agnostic theist --> agnostic --> ATHEIST.

I became an atheist about a month ago when I finally came to the conclusion that there is no god or higher being.

I was raised Christian, but I wasn't really all that religous, barely ever going to church.
I had a really bad religious experience too, which, without me even really acknowledging it, made me agnostic but still trying to keep up my beliefs. Then I became completely agnostic towards last fall due to experiences and logic and education and now I still consider myself agnostic but it's more like agnostic atheist.
